Are you still paying for short stories?

I have photos, too.

It seems you have me mistaken for another. I do not pay for short storie's although I do review and edit for others when it suits me.

I am always pleased to see interesting photos.

So, this is not you?:

https://www.gothic.net/submissions/

"We look for work between 2,000 and 10,000 words. Payment is net 60 on on-sale date and we generally purchase first worldwide rights (exclusive from acceptance to one year after publication) along with nonexclusive reprint rights. Payment rates and rights purchased are negotiable with higher rates and free bonus promotion for other projects available for established authors."

In regard to photos, what is your rate please?

Well, that settles that.

How do I contact an admin?

To be honest Mr Doom... or is it Mr Cock... probably through the "contact us" link at the bottom of the page.

What genre do you write? What's your format?

I think I did that once but maybe they were in their coffins sleeping at the time. I can try again.

short stories, poems, a lot of them nsfw.

The name is Demoncock, a very proud family name.

I feel weird welcoming anybody anywhere because I'm so unimportant, let alone onto a site where I myself am so newly registered, but since there are about three or something users here, I guess this terrible burden of responsibility falls on my shoulders. So,

Welcome, friend.

You've managed to make me feel quite jealous of your self-confident attitude about your writing. I wish I could have that. The submission page here looks terribly daunting to me.

I'm sorry for posting in your beautiful thread and ruining it

Thank you Trivial for responding and welcoming me.

There is a goth dress shop across the street from me that I plan to check out when this virus thing ends.

It is near my hotel in Belgrade.

I originally came to this site after seeing an article saying goth.net was accepting literary submissions and artwork.

Is that no longer happening?

Really cool thing that about the shop. Throw "us" an update if you ever get to visit it.

I don't know what else Gnet might do with submissions, but I think the last time fiction was released on this site at least was back in 2006... So, yeah, I don't think it's happening. But that's just me and my view is negative like a goat's.
